He even had the thought, "Should I just give this junk away for free?"

But Kaguya couldn't care less about him, this passerby.

After leaving this shop, she came to another stall.

"Oh? A bracelet made from an extraterrestrial meteorite?"

Such a sign once again attracted Kaguya's attention: "Where is this extraterrestrial meteorite from?"

The owner of this shop was a middle-aged woman, and she naturally wouldn't be as flustered as the man.

Hearing Kaguya's question, she immediately perked up and introduced:

"This young lady has a good eye; this is our store's treasure!"

"...I feel like I've heard this line before."

"That's not important!"

The female boss enthusiastically introduced:

"This is a genuine extraterrestrial meteorite bracelet, made from star meteorite, Adamantium alloy, nether alloy, rune crystals, M78 nebula ore, Aizhe redstone, and other materials. Wearing it will grant you a long life and eternal youth!"

Saying that, she secretly covered her mouth: "And let me leak some internal information. My third uncle's son's daughter's classmate's dad is now an official on the moon. It is said that this bracelet is very popular among the Lunar people. If you don't buy it now, you won't be able to get it!"

Kaguya: "…………"

Because there were too many things to complain about, she didn't even know how to retort.

After being stunned for a long time, she tentatively opened her mouth: "But the Lunar people are not bound by lifespan in the first place; they shouldn't pursue things that extend life, right?"

"Tsk, nonsense."

The female boss waved her hands repeatedly: "Do you understand the Lunar people, or do I understand the Lunar people?"

Kaguya: "???"

Is there a possibility that I was originally a Lunar princess?

But after all, Chu Bai was by her side. After holding it back for a long time, she still couldn't refute it.

So, she had to put down this bracelet with complex ingredients and walked towards the next stall with an even more complex expression...

Chapter 37: Kaguya's Great Prank is a Success! The Preliminary Round Arc Officially Ends!

After that, they leisurely strolled around the street.

Although there were many unscrupulous merchants on the street, with Chu Bai by her side, there was no need to worry about being scammed.

For example, a certain exquisitely crafted sculpture, the merchant directly quoted 500,000.

As a result, Chu Bai offered 50 yuan directly, and the most important thing was that the store owner hesitated for a moment and actually nodded in agreement...

Kaguya widened her eyes slightly, feeling that her whole being had been shocked.

Fortunately, such stores were only a minority, and subsequent transactions gradually returned to normal.

And Kaguya also had a very happy time shopping, buying many fresh and interesting little things, and truly experiencing the atmosphere of life.

"Thank you so much for today."

After visiting the last store, Kaguya walked side by side with Chu Bai.

She looked at Chu Bai's profile, revealing a tranquil and beautiful smile:

"First, you helped me with directions, and then you accompanied me for so long on the street. I haven't been this happy outside for a long time."

"Oh, you're too polite."

Chu Bai responded with a smile:

"As the saying goes, meeting is fate. Anyway, I'm free, so I'll just take it as a way to relax."

"Is that so... but I still want to do something more substantial in return."

Kaguya thought for a while and took out a pendant from her wide sleeves.

This pendant is silver-white, inlaid with a wine-red gemstone. Under the sunlight, this gemstone is emitting a faint glow.

"This is a ruby called 'Flame Thorns,' which contains rich fire energy. It is one of my many collections."

"If a magician carries it with them, it can accelerate the understanding of the fire law, or reduce some of the magic power consumption when releasing fire-attribute magic."

"I'll give it to you as a thank you for today."

The gentle voice said words that shocked Chu Bai.

He quickly reached out to decline: "Absolutely not, absolutely not."

Kaguya pushed it back: "Don't refuse, don't refuse."

Chu Bai pushed back again: "Really don't need it, really don't need it."

Kaguya made the same move: "Accept it, accept it."

The two declined three times, pulling each other.

In the end, Chu Bai used his skill and accidentally took the gem in his hand during the refusal process.

"Oh dear, look at this, how embarrassing..."

Chu Bai immediately beamed with joy, revealing a satisfied smile.

Kaguya was also amused by his expression:

"Accept it, Xiao Bai, no need to be so polite."

"For me, the pleasant time spent with you has far surpassed this gem."

The soft words made Chu Bai tremble all over.

He solemnly looked at Kaguya, and a different color suddenly flashed in his eyes.

"Miss Kaguya..."

"Hmm?"

Kaguya slightly raised her head to meet his gaze, but seeing the different emotions in Chu Bai's eyes, she suddenly panicked.

No way, this expression, could it be...

Could it be that he is going to confess to me?

Thinking of this possibility, Kaguya's heart suddenly began to beat faster.

Although they have only met in person for half a day, before that, she and Chu Bai had been online friends for a long time.

And Chu Bai didn't cover his face, so for Kaguya, they were actually "long-time" real friends.

But even so, this is too fast, right?

Although Kaguya doesn't deny her good feelings for Chu Bai, this feeling is currently only pure friendship, or brotherly camaraderie, without too much ambiguous atmosphere!

But if Xiao Bai confesses to her, how should she respond?

Agree? Refuse? Or not answer directly?

Can't she set five more problems and let him find some messy things?

In this moment, many thoughts flashed through Kaguya's mind.

Until Chu Bai's voice sounded again.

"Miss Kaguya!"

"Ah, yes..."

Kaguya slightly grabbed her skirt, looking at Chu Bai somewhat nervously.

Then she saw Chu Bai suddenly grab her shoulders, his eyes bursting with passionate flames:

"It's been really fun spending time with you!"

"Yes, yes!"

"So I want to take our relationship a step further!"

"Yes, yes!"

"So... let's directly cut chicken heads, burn yellow paper, and become sworn siblings!"

"Yes, yes... huh??"

Kaguya, who was about to give him a friend card, was immediately stunned.

Chu Bai was a little embarrassed:

"Oh dear, I don't know why, but I just feel like I have a sense of familiarity with you."

"So I suddenly came up with this relatively novel idea. Of course, if you mind, then forget it. Even as ordinary friends, we can still visit each other often..."

Kaguya stared blankly at Chu Bai, who was explaining.

After a long time, she finally reacted, and immediately her beautiful face was covered with red:

"Xiao Bai, you... you..."

"What's wrong with me?"

"You idiot!!"

"...Eh?"

...

...

In the end, he still couldn't understand the meaning of Kaguya's words.

But seeing that she wasn't really angry, Chu Bai didn't take it to heart.

Looking at the sky, it was almost noon, and Marisa and Alice should be finishing the competition soon.

Just as Kaguya was about to go home, they parted at the entrance of the village.

"Anyway, thank you so much for today."

Kaguya bowed slightly, but her eyes still had a little resentment:

"If it weren't for your last request to become sworn siblings, then this would have been a perfect and pleasant shopping experience."

Chu Bai chuckled twice:

"Next time, next time."

"Sigh..."

Kaguya took two steps outside, thought about it, and then retreated.

Gently tiptoeing, the girl leaned close to Chu Bai's ear and gently blew air:

"Of course, even if you said such an outrageous request... I was still very happy today."

"!"

Before Chu Bai could react, Kaguya had already smiled slyly and flew into the distance.

Leaving Chu Bai with a slightly red face, standing there somewhat blankly.

This, this doesn't seem like brotherly affection...

After taking several deep breaths in a row, he finally calmed down the inexplicable restlessness in his heart.

At this time, looking at Kaguya's figure in the distance again, in his heart, he had already confirmed a certain guess.

Well, I'll go back and test it out...

...

...

In the air.
